For rm300, what's the best bang for buck casing?
In consideration ; 1) Cm 690 II Advanced 2) Corsair Carbide 400r Help me decide or suggest me other casing as well  Must have good cable management with grommets. Fan filters, USB 3.0 not compulsory Full black interior, simple and sleek design not futuristic type  |

Yes bro iaknesnah, i dont like the bulging out panels also. Other factors seems so perfect for it. Maybe buy and mod it later, cut it off the bulging panel

Guess Lian Li will be the best choice if you are looking for aluminium casings. Can't think of other alternatives for mid tower at that price point.

FYI, the top 200mm fan will have clearance issue with Corsair's H50 fan/sink
